Soilwork - Reveal New Album Details
The Living Infinite, the ninth studio album and first dual-disc release by Swedish melodic metal maestros Soilwork, will be unleashed on February 27th in Asia via Marquee Records, in Europe on March 1st, and in North America on March 5th through Nuclear Blast Records. Produced by Jens Bogren ( Opeth, Amon Amarth, Bloodbath), the album features artwork by Mnemic's guitarist Mircea Gabriel Eftemie.
The band commented: "After commissioning some pretty elaborate covers for the last couple of records, we decided to try something more sober and design-oriented for The Living Infinite. Who better to call than the man who created the iconic Stabbing The Drama cover? Mircea Gabriel Eftemie is not only a close friend but also an incredible graphic designer. We're all stoked about his work which is different from anything Soilwork has ever done and perfectly suits the elegant oceanic concept of The Living Infinite. Enjoy, folks!"
Added Mircea Gabriel Eftemie: "Seven years ago, I created the artwork for the Stabbing The Drama album and I can't believe how time flies. Here we are, with sexy gray hairs, working with my friends in Soilwork again. This time, we built the cover around a maritime concept, aiming for something direct and symbolic. I believe we achieved that quite well. From my creative deck, I salute you and say: Long Live The Living Infinite."
The Living Infinite also hosts Justin Sullivan, lead singer of the English band New Model Army, as a guest vocalist on the track "The Windswept Mercy" and marks the recording debut of longtime Soilwork touring guitarist David Andersson (Night Flight Orchestra).
